Occasional bouts of insomnia may come and go without causing any serious problems, but for some people, insomnia can last for months or even years.
Although insomnia is widespread, it is not always clear what causes it.
A health report published by “Harvard Health” titled Improving Sleep lists 6 health problems that can make sleeping more difficult:
diabetes
Diabetes is a serious disease, but many people are living with the condition without knowing it, as the symptoms can be subtle. According to the report, people with diabetes may experience problems that make sleeping more difficult. These problems include night sweats and a frequent need to urinate.
arthritis
Medications used to treat arthritis often cause insomnia. If you suffer from arthritis and sleep problems, your doctor may suggest taking an aspirin or an anti-inflammatory drug right before bed to reduce pain and swelling.
nocturnal urination
A condition that makes you need to urinate a lot at night. The condition causes the person to wake up at least twice during the night, but in severe cases, the person may wake up to 5 or 6 times.
Thyroid disease
An overactive thyroid gland can cause sleep problems. The disease causes the nervous system to be overstimulated. Symptoms of the condition can be vague.
